Happy new year?

Sorry I've been MIA for, like, forever. Lots of unpleasant health stuff. I... don't really want to get into it. There was a lot of vomit. Occasionally, projectile vomit at the Kennedy Center. 2017 is off to a banging start.

Welcome, LJ refugees. Sorry Russia is fucking with you. You know, more than they're fucking with the rest of us.

I have been cheating on DW a bit by posting on Facebook again. Mostly because I now have a bunch of Crohn's buddies on there, and I feel better about dumping my shit (literal and figurative) on those who identify? Also I post ridiculous pictures of my cat. Here, you can have those.




Dressed for Christmas. :)


Chelsea meets her match. My parents adopted a cat that looks EXACTLY LIKE HER and named him Clinton.


This is Clinton. Not my cat.


This my cat.

Oh, hey, I also has recipes from aaaages ago I never posted.

Pumpkin Nutella Swirl Muffins

Salted Pretzel-Marshmallow Bars

I took pictures of those, too:



Desserty things taste good. (In the spirit of "this is my life now," I made them for a party I was supposed to go to, only to end up barfing and missing the party, so my coworkers ended up getting the goodies.)

How you?

Your kitty is very cute.

Crohn's sucks. I'm sorry it's been sucking extra hard lately.

Thanks! I like your icon! You've got a matching kitty, too? :)

[wendelah1]

We do. We have one black and white kitty and one black kitty.

Nice! My parents have 3 (or 4) black cats outside. They thought they had 3, then one day, my mother looks outside and says, "There are four black cats outside! That is one more black cat than we should have." And because they can't tell the new one apart from one of the known ones, they are never quite sure who they're feeding, lol.

I'm glad you live to see another year (really, though!!!!) and that you were able to celebrate the holidays with double the cat fun (do we ship it or...).

lmao ilu

He is the Bad Cat and only she can tame him. Of course we ship it.

For real, though. He is a big bully who chases and attacks all the feral cats in my parents' backyard. So I was kind of worried about bringing Chelsea for Christmas, but we got there and she was all, "I am OLDER than you, and I do not take shit from bratty cats." And she just hissssed the fuck at him and he left her alone. He would do this thing where he'd try to sneak up on her, all creeper like, and she'd catch him and GLARE and he'd slink away all sheepish.

So yes, they will be in ~love. It's only a matter of time.

(My mom is legit like, "Can she teach the other cats how to hiss?")
